Types of Electric Fireplaces
Two common types of electric fireplaces are built-in and wall-mounted units. The appropriate option depends on your available space, electrical requirements and the manufacturer’s installation instructions.
Built-in fireplace: Designed to fit within a suitable wall recess or fireplace opening. For fireplace insert installation, we assess the opening and the selected unit’s requirements before discussing the installation. “If the existing firebox needs attention, explore our firebox repair and rebuilding services.”
Wall-mounted fireplace: Mounted on a suitable wall with the clearances and support specified by the manufacturer. Placement near a television or other furnishings must account for heat output and the unit’s instructions.
Realistic Flames Only Feature
Many electric fireplaces offer a flame-only setting, allowing you to enjoy the visual effect without operating the heater. Depending on the model, this feature lets you create a welcoming atmosphere throughout the year, even when additional heat is not needed.

Can you install an insert in an existing fireplace?
The opening and selected insert must be assessed for compatibility. Installation requirements differ between electric, gas and wood-burning inserts, including their clearance, power and venting needs. “For an insert that uses an existing chimney, a chimney inspection can help assess its condition before installation.”
Does an electric fireplace need a chimney?
An electric fireplace does not produce combustion exhaust, so it does not need a chimney for venting. It still requires a suitable electrical supply and installation in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions.
